Figure 2.18 is a 2×2 contingency table, from a study of discrimination in intimate relationships reported by people with depression. The table shows the cross‐ tabulation of discrimination for two groups. The columns represent those who anticipated discrimination and those who did not. The rows represent those who experienced and those who did not experience discrimination. What do the percentage figures represent? How useful are they if you want to examine any possible connection between anticipation of discrimination and experiencing it? What percentages would be more useful? What does the table suggest about a possible connection between the two variables?
